Not a single revolver. I would have thought maybe the S&W 642/442s would have made the list with no-locks going for $361...(I bought one!)
I think they are beautiful!, I think probably hundreds of 642 club members would agree.Ugly, capacity limited guns.....
Yeah, I can see why
*swyped from the evo so excuse any typos*
I own a Remington made Mosin-Nagant. And it'll have to do. I'd even try shooting it but first I have to find a scabbard for the damn bayonet -- I don't shoot these antiques until they are a complete stand!

Autos get finicky when shrunk, I don't completely trust any of them. G26 is smallest auto I'd personally go. I wish I had reliable options.
I can't help but view the list as a social commentary. The #1 gun is a late 19th century design that has fought thru two world wars and a major revolution and was used successfully by a poor population that was unable to read and write.
Today you can buy the same gun for $75.00 that only needs the grease cleaned out of it to be safe and usable. Add another $75.00 for 440 rounds of surplus ammo.
While today we are focused on small caliber rapid fire weapons and a spray and pray standard of marksmanship I believe the bolt action rifle is still the right choice for the population at large.
I challenge you to shoot rapidly with a Mosin... I think you'd be lucky to get off even 2-3 shots in a second... "Spray and pray" would be more like "aim crappily and pray" with a Mosin - there's not gonna be any sprayin' lolI think you're reading too much into it. The Mosin is #1 for one reason: it's pretty much the cheapest gun in the store. It's not because it's a bolt action, or accurate, or reliable, or any other of a list of features - it's #1 because of the cost.
I'd wager that if there were an equivalently priced "small caliber rapid fire weapon" you'd see it sell better. I also think its a fallacy that you associate an autoloader with "spray and pray" (you can take your time and aim - or decide not to - regardless of action type), but that's a topic for another thread.
I agree. The mosin is #1 because it is cheap. I have considered one before only because of the price. It could be a virtually any caliber or any style, the price is what makes me curious and interestedI think you're reading too much into it.

No AR's? What'm I missing!?
Problem with ARs is that they get split up into multiple brands, models, and types.
